In the debugger I have a field whose type is

org.eclipse.emf.ecore.xmi.impl.EcoreResourceFactoryImpl$1

I Open Actual Type. The code is

  @Override
  public Resource createResource(URI uri)
  {
    XMLResource result = 
      new XMIResourceImpl(uri)
      {
        @Override
        protected boolean useIDs()
        {
          return eObjectToIDMap != null || idToEObjectMap != null;
        }
      };
    result.setEncoding("UTF-8");
...

I double click the left vertical bar for the result.setEncoding line following the nested class. No breakpoint is set.

It seems that the 'editor' opened as and titled EcoreResourceFactoryImpl$1 has inadequate knowledge of all the surrounding lines that it displays. However the editor does have some knowledge since the override decorations and navigate to superclass actions work.

Ideally WYSIWYG but failing that as a minimum a popup should offer to open the surrounding EcoreResourceFactoryImpl class file where breakpoints could work. And failing that, rather than the 'working' lines of the nested class having a confusing darket grey background, the 'context' surrounding lines should have a reddish error / hatched / greyed out appearance.
